I’ve tried a handful of the sauna spaces around Seattle and the Eastside, but this particular space appealed to me due to how community oriented they are.
I’ve done three sauna sessions - two with the cold plunge, and one with the red light. Each was soothing and enjoyable, with great amenities and engagement /…

Wellness GEM and I'm telling everyone about my amazing Moon suite experience. I am new to cold plunge and sauna practices. I'm keeping an open mind to holistic Healthcare solutions and the power of YES is significantly improving my relationship with: pain, stress, joint inflammation, listening to body signals when I'm overstimulated. Im learning how to manage my breathing when im shocking my central nervous system. Im serious about building healthier habits and this amazing 'slice of heaven' helps me achieve my goal! Tysm!! Also their NEW client promotion is worth the investment. Say yes to Space Bar and enjoy the impact (better sleep, boundaries, more bandwidth, clarity and less brain fog, effective energy, and more)

I recently joined Space BAR Wellness for cold plunges and had an amazing first experience. The head coach, Miguel, did a fantastic job walking me through everything and making sure I felt comfortable from the start. He took the time to coach my breathing and clearly explain what to expect, which made a huge difference during the plunge.
You can tell he’s really knowledgeable and passionate about helping people get the most out of the experience. The guidance and support made it much easier to relax and focus on the breathing instead of the cold. This has definitely become my second home.
If you’re new to cold plunging or just looking for a great wellness spot, I highly recommend checking out Space BAR Wellness. Great coaching, great atmosphere, and an overall awesome experience.

Ryan KLocal Guide · 17 reviewsiTotal number of Google reviews Ryan has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
Recently went to this establishment. Had 3 memorable inconveniences in my experience with it.
I booked the moon suite for $70 and was confused about the guest option. I was confused if the $70 fee was for the booking of the suite and if my partner needed to pay as well. I am NOT a member by the way, so this "guest" verbiage is already confusing to begin with. Technically, aren't non members guests? And so i called ahead asking if my partner needs to pay an additional fee and the person said no. The $70 is inclusive of both me and my partner. We went in person to check in and we had to pay an additional $25 for it, not ideal. Feels like we got tricked.
Secondly, as we get settled in, the door to the sauna would NOT open. It was jammed. Okay no problem. Let's not use excessive force to open the GLASS door. Let's ask the front desk. Problem is: there is NO one there. For the next 5-10minutes, NO one is at the desk. Mind you, we paid for an hour so a small mishap like this has lasting consequences in our experience. NO one is able to help us open the sauna door and it was only after some careful tinkering of the door when we were able to FINALLY open it. This is already a huge safety hazard and not having an employee present is a huge liability. This whole ordeal took 15 minutes of our time.
LASTLY, we were abruptly interrupted at the end of our session where we were rushed out of the room because there was another session right after ours and they needed time to flip the room. I've been to other wellness centers like this and they ALWAYS gave us a 5-10 minute notice before our session ended. My peaceful experience ended with a sense of urgency and pressure.
I would not personally come back to this. First off, be transparent and honest about your prices. Don't give out false information, please. Second, be present or have some bell/alerting system available. Thirdly, give a 5-10minute notice of the session ending.

Good evening Ryan, reading your review definitely saddens me... it sounds so far from the experience we strive to deliver. As a locally owned family business, we take great pride in serving our Community, and I would like to personally extend my sincere apologies. If you're open to it, our operations manager Miguel would like to schedule a phone call so we can do right by you.
Healthy regards,
Andrew

I heard about Spacebar Wellness through a girlfriend and decided to take advantage of their flight package (which is an amazing deal by the way)!
So far I’ve enjoyed a red light therapy session and two cold plunge/sauna sessions with my partner. We tried to experience as many different rooms as possible and I can confidently say, they’re all wonderful!
My first visit to the studio was actually on a
maintenance day (my mistake 😅), and one of the owners, Andrew, still welcomed me, gave me a tour and shared the intention behind the space. That kindness left a great impression.
The rooms are always spotless and set with towels, water and a timer. Each sauna has Bluetooth connectivity so you can pair your phone to listen to music/podcast.
Every time I leave this place, I feel grounded and restored. If you’re looking for a place to step away from all the stress and chaos, this is the place!
Great experience! Service was so kind and helpful! Complementary water and towels provided. Bluetooth option is the saunas which is super fun! All around awesome !!
